Examine the completed FLA file

As you examine the finished version of an application that you'll create,
you'll also look at the Flash workspace.
In subsequent sections you'll go through the steps to create the application
yourself.
Open the authoring document
It's helpful to analyze the completed authoring document, which is a FLA
file, to see how the author designed the application. You should examine
what kinds of scripts were used to add interactivity, and understand what
you are going to create.
The files for this tutorial are located in the Samples and Tutorials folder in
the Flash installation folder. For many users, particularly in educational
settings, this folder is read-only. Before proceeding with the tutorial,
copy the entire Script Assist tutorial folder to the writable location of
your choice.
On most computers, you will find the Script Assist tutorial folder in the
following locations:
In Windows: boot drive\Program Files\Macromedia\Flash 8\Samples
and Tutorials\Tutorial Assets\ActionScript\Script Assist.
On the Macintosh: Macintosh HD/Applications/Macromedia Flash 8/
Samples and Tutorials/Tutorial Assets/ActionScript/Script Assist.
Copy the Script Assist folder to another location on your hard disk to
which you have access. In the Script Assist folder, you will find a Flash file
called scriptassist_complete.fla. Double-click the file to open it in Flash.
You now see the completed tutorial file in the Flash authoring
environment.
